Rooms very spacey but dated, very clean, excellent views from balcony, very quiet. No air conditioning but fan provided. Breakfast for my taste was very good but people who are looking for a full English might be disappointed. Has several meals at lunch which was a buffet style which was excellent valve at only 7 euro also evening meal excellent at 17.50 euro for 3 courses and house wine included. Hotel a bit out from Funchal but stop only 200 metres from hotel and only 2.70 euro return.

This was our second visit to Funchal and the Escola. We were very impressed on the first occasion and were not disappointed this year. This hotel does not have five star rooms but the whole place is very clean and well cared for. The staff are very helpful and service second to none. Nothing is too much trouble, room service fast and efficient and of course with a catering college associated the meals are first class. We look forward to our next visit.

A five star hotel at a two star price - the evening meal is a fantastic deal, euro 16.50 for cordon bleu food including a decent wine and coffee. Nice to getaway from tattoos and beer bellies!

This is a small hotel, only twenty rooms. We were made very welcome on arrival and very quickly became known to all the staff who were very friendly and helpful. The hotel public spaces and rooms are not five star but kept at all times clean and functional.

Attached to the hotel is a chef school, the products of which are served to guests. The standard of food and its presentation is outstanding with price and quality to encourage many of the locals to visit.

Although not in the centre of town The Escola is located in a quiet residential neighborhood to the west of Funchal. The city centre is only ten minutes away by a frequent bus service. We will certainly wish to stay again on future visits to the Island.
